Domain structure of tropomodulin [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 2000
The structure of tropomodulin, the unique capping protein for the pointed end (the slow‐growing end) of an actin filament, was studied. An improved Escherichia coli expression system for chicken E‐tropomodulin was established and tropomodulin was prepared, Tmod (N39), in which 15 amino acid residues from the original C‐terminus are deleted at the DNA ...

Tropomyosin - master regulator of actin filament function in the cytoskeleton. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Tropomyosin (Tpm) isoforms are the master regulators of the functions of individual actin filaments in fungi and metazoans. Tpms are coiled-coil parallel dimers that form a head-to-tail polymer along the length of actin filaments.

Intrinsic structural disorder in cytoskeletal proteins. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cytoskeleton, the internal scaffold of the cell, displays an exceptional combination of stability and dynamics. It is composed of three major filamentous networks, microfilaments (actin filaments), intermediate filaments (neurofilaments), and ...

Evolution of Plasticity in Response to Ethanol Between Recently Separated Populations of D. melanogaster With Different Ecological Histories

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We identified: (1) differences in gene expression among each locale; (2) changes in gene expression in response to treatment; (3) genotype‐specific changes in gene expression in response to treatment. ABSTRACT While there is abundant theoretical work on the evolution of phenotype plasticity, empirical support has lagged.

Loss of Tropomodulin4 in the zebrafish mutant träge causes cytoplasmic rod formation and muscle weakness reminiscent of nemaline myopathy

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2014
Nemaline myopathy is an inherited muscle disease that is mainly diagnosed by the presence of nemaline rods in muscle biopsies. Of the nine genes associated with the disease, five encode components of striated muscle sarcomeres.

Role of active contraction and tropomodulins in regulating actin filament length and sarcomere structure in developing zebrafish skeletal muscle

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2016
Whilst it is recognised that contraction plays an important part in maintaining the structure and function of mature skeletal muscle, its role during development remains undefined.

Formation, contraction, and mechanotransduction of myofribrils in cardiac development: clues from genetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect in humans. It is a leading infant mortality factor worldwide, caused by defective cardiac development.
